DEAR RESIDENT
We know how much pride you take in your local
neighbourhoods which is why we are committed to
keeping them clean and tackling enviro-crimes such
as littering and fly-tipping.
Last year we launched our new Neighbourhoods team, which has seen
us take a more localised approach to make sure our streets are kept
clean and safe. The team is already starting to make a difference locally,
by becoming more responsive to dealing with issues such as poor waste
and recycling behaviours, fly-tipping, food enforcement, noise nuisance,
planning enforcement and anti-social behaviour.

BOROUGH CLEAN

News
In my opinion
How would you define the word
waste? Something thats no
longer useful, perhaps? Taking
up unnecessary space in your
cupboards, loft or garage?
Destined for the dustbin?
If thats the case, I would argue
that waste doesnt really exist.
What does exist is good stuff in the
wrong place. Im determined to put
that stuff back into use, with my
new community project, swopp,
based in Walthamstow.
Im certainly not alone in my
crusade. Once you start digging, its
easy to find a plethora of amazing
environmental organisations doing
their bit to prevent useful things
